Chapter 1391 Mutual Schemes

Chapter 1391 Mutual Schemes (First Update)
The villa was built in just three days; that's the power of technology.

They also granted Li Qiubai and Yulia access to the territory and the villa.

However, these two individuals are only permitted access to the newly built villa and a 200-meter radius around it.

Meanwhile, the three major ancient martial arts associations, along with relevant departments of the alliance and the March Star, jointly announced the date of the ancient martial arts arena competition, which will be held in six months.

March Star formed a temporary preparatory team for the Ancient Martial Arts Tournament.

We plan to broadcast it live across the entire internet.

In addition, there has been significant progress in the Federation's purchase of Imperial warships.

There were two reasons that drove this. The first was that Zhang Han from the Third Fleet of the Federation conducted a live broadcast across the entire internet.

Specifically, regarding the Morning Star Pirate Crew, clones resembling the Emperor and Queen of the Empire were discovered on the crew's warships.

The imperial authorities then sent people to contact the Federal Central State.

The main purpose is to take what was shown in the live stream back to the Empire for investigation.

That's the official explanation, but really it's just to prevent the matter from escalating further.

We must prevent these things from falling into the hands of others.

The Federal State of Madhya took the opportunity to make its own demands, requesting that the Empire deliver warships.

Another reason is the Emperor's desire to obtain the intelligence information provided by 007 as soon as possible.

The Federal State of Madhya Pradesh and the relevant departments of the Empire have reached a new agreement.

The Empire will deliver warships to the Federal State in due course and continue to freeze trade with the Pirate Alliance.

Because the Pirate Alliance could not find any trace of the Morning Star Pirates.

So where did the clones of the emperor and so many other celebrities come from?

There are no further leads at this time!
The Empire expects to deliver several Class A warships to the Federal State within two months!
The specific delivery timeline has not yet been finalized!
The Empire also has alliances, and already has reserves related to warship manufacturing.

The materials for building warships, the parts for building warships, and all the robots for building warships are readily available.

This ensures that lost warships can be quickly replenished or that armed forces can be rapidly expanded in the event of war.

As a result of this news, the prices of warship-related materials are currently soaring, mainly due to the pirate attacks on dozens of mineral planets in the Federation, which have caused a shortage of material supplies.

The Alliance, along with the Empire's mining companies, are activating some dormant mines.

The mining company owns many mineral stars, many of which are in a state of sequestration.

Without war, the prices of these supplies would hardly increase.

The Alliance and the Empire, although they have sufficient reserves, need to replenish them after they are depleted.

The recent war between the Pirate Alliance and the Federal State of Madhya Pradesh has driven up the price of related materials.

Although the alliance had little to do with the war between the federal state of Madhya Pradesh and the pirates.

After all, the alliance did not do business with the pirate alliance.

However, the empire needs to purchase materials when building warships, which causes fluctuations in the materials market.

In addition, the attack on the Mineral Star of the Federal State of Madhya Pradesh by the Pirate Alliance has caused an imbalance in the supply chain!

Therefore, the Alliance and the Imperial Mining Company raised the price of materials.

This had a significant impact on Yang Bo, because John Lee's warship dock was in dire need of materials.

Although on the surface, it would significantly increase the cost of building warships for John Lee.

However, Yang Bo profited handsomely from the conflict between the Pirate Alliance and the Federal State of Madhya Pradesh!
Otherwise, John Lee wouldn't have been able to acquire so many warships.

Furthermore, John Lee's losses were not as great as they appeared on the surface.

Because Yang Bo's warship dock and intelligent robots were all manufactured by himself.

The Empire also has warships from the Alliance, which are not manufactured by a single company.

A warship is the culmination of high technology, and every aspect of it involves the most advanced technologies in the world.

It's simply not something a single company could accomplish.

Because it involves many patents, different systems belong to different companies, and these companies also have patents for these systems.

From another security perspective, warships are military equipment, and neither the Empire nor the Alliance can put all their technology in one company.

Furthermore, from a profit perspective, it's impossible to give such a huge amount of wealth to a single company.

Whether in the Alliance or the Empire, the construction of warships requires a vote in the council.

These lawmakers would never agree to such a thing if they didn't have sufficient interests to offer.

There was another person anxiously contacting Yang Bo, and that was Zhang Han from the Imperial Third Fleet.

Zhang Han's family is a shareholder in a consortium in Madhya Pradesh.

Zhang Han was originally a captain in a fleet, a colonel.

Zhang Han's blow to the Morning Star Pirates was of great significance.

First, the Federation has recently been at a disadvantage in its battle against the Pirate Alliance.

Zhang Han's clean and decisive victory, which was also broadcast live online, has greatly reversed some of the negative public opinion surrounding Madhya Pradesh.

Of course, this negative public opinion refers to other states besides Madhya Pradesh, as well as the confederation and empire.

In Madhya Pradesh, no one dares to stir up negative public opinion, because in the federal government, conglomerates are king.

On the other hand, due to the crackdown on the Morning Star Pirates, the era saw the emergence of a clone emperor and some celebrities and figures from the Clone Alliance and the Empire.

Madhya Pradesh has secretly gained considerable benefits as well.

First, an agreement was reached with the Empire, which prioritized providing warships to the Federal Central State and froze the warships of the Pirate Alliance.

This would allow the Federal State of Madhya to complete the formation of its fleet first, while the Pirate Alliance, without warships, would be at a disadvantage.

In addition, many conglomerates in the Empire and the Alliance are secretly contacting the Middle Kingdom because they are also afraid that their family members are on the list of clones.

As for the families involved in the clones shown in the live stream, the first thing they need to figure out is whether the biological samples of these clones are actually from their own families.

Moreover, these corporations are also afraid that clones will leak biological samples.

Therefore, after Zhang Han's live stream ended, many financial groups from the Alliance and the Empire contacted the Central State privately, requesting their intervention in the incident.

The Madhya Pradesh government also keenly recognized that this was an excellent opportunity, so they directly used some remote monitoring methods to have these people monitor the clones throughout the process.

Of course, if you want to monitor the entire process, you must make some kind of statement.

Therefore, Madhya Pradesh secretly gained a lot of benefits.

The reason Zhang Han is in such a hurry is because he wants to make a name for himself.

Zhang Han's contribution this time is significant, but he is in a rather awkward position because he used to be the captain and commander of a fleet.

Zhang Han now wants to become the captain and commander of a main fleet, but his achievements are not enough.

Because the captains of the main fleet need to have the rank of admiral.

Zhang Han was originally a colonel, but his merits this time are significant enough that he will be promoted to major general without any problem. In fact, due to the significant impact of his actions, he has already been nominated for lieutenant general.

Zhang Han still wants to accumulate enough merit to become a general.

This also involves internal power struggles within the Madhya Pradesh financial families.

The importance of a captain and commander of a main fleet is self-evident.

In the past, Zhang Han would not have competed for the rank of general.

Previously, the captains and commanders of the main fleet were monopolized by certain families.

However, Madhya Pradesh now needs to add at least three main fleets, even though the Federation still has enough generals.

However, as long as Zhang Han has enough merit, he can easily take over a main fleet.

Zhang Han was aware of his situation, which is why he was eager to continue making contributions.

Zhang Han kept sending messages to Kuangbiao9527, but the other party did not reply.

This made Zhang Han extremely anxious!

Zhang Han never imagined that he would have the opportunity to become the captain or commander of the main fleet.

Although it is said that the officers in the federal army are all connected through connections.

Because they are all people with connections, they have to be ranked according to seniority.

Madhya Pradesh has more than 900 generals, including more than 100 lieutenant generals.

There are more than 200 lieutenant generals and more than 400 major generals.

The reason there are so many generals is mainly because superpowered people have such long lifespans.

For Zhang Han, who was a colonel, it would have taken at least 200 years to become a general, and during those 200 years, his family would have needed to continue supporting him.

But now, by a stroke of luck, he has distinguished himself and has the opportunity to become an admiral, and even more so, a captain and commander of a main fleet.

So Zhang Han's ambition is like a weed; now that he has family support, all that's left is to make a name for himself.

Yang Bo also knew that Zhang Han had sent the message and could roughly guess what Zhang Han was thinking.

Yang Bo wanted Zhang Han to be anxious because he wanted to find a way to control Zhang Han.

"Congratulations, General Zhang, on your meritorious service!" Yang Bo finally had time to chat with Zhang Han.

Zhang Han has been making headlines lately, with the Federal State of Madhya Pradesh constantly promoting him!
Moreover, the family's resources are also tilted towards him.

Because the family also gained a lot from this incident.

However, Zhang Han was very anxious because the competition for personnel appointments in the newly established main fleets of Madhya Pradesh was fierce.

The position of commander of a main fleet is coveted by many.

After Yang Bo sent the message, Zhang Han immediately replied: "I must thank you for the information. I would like to express my gratitude for the information you provided. May I ask what you need?"

Yang Bo saw the message Zhang Han sent; the other party was so direct.

This is how the Federation and the Alliance do things!
Federal interests come first.

Therefore, people are quite direct when discussing interests.

Unlike the Alliance and the Empire, which are more subtle, this approach is different.

"I wonder what General Zhang can offer?" Yang Bo sent a message to the other party.

Upon seeing the message from 9527, Zhang Han replied: "Now I have the opportunity to become the captain and commander of the main fleet, and I need your help!"

"If you have any ideas, please feel free to share them!"

"My family is now providing me with a lot of support."

Yang Bo knew what Zhang Han meant as soon as he saw the message.

In other words, Zhang Han needs more information so that he can make more demands!

Yang Bo thought about it carefully and realized that Zhang Han couldn't provide what he wanted.

All I need right now is a warship.

However, this request cannot be made.

Moreover, these people in the Federation share a common problem.

That is, when you are needed, you are God.

Once they no longer need you, they will turn against you.

Just like John Lee, who is the governor of Calaya, has already given those companies and members of parliament in Calaya enough benefits.

But these people still planned to scheme against John Lee.

So don't be fooled by Zhang Han's current humble attitude. Once he becomes the captain or commander of the main fleet, he might turn around and take back double what they've invested.

Yang Bo would certainly give such a person a chance.

"I need a standard energy stone!" Yang Bo thought for a moment and replied to the other party.

Standard energy stones are the energy stones used on warships.

Zhang Han wasn't surprised at all when he saw 9527's reply.

Zhang Han himself analyzed that 9527 was most likely a competitor of the Morning Star Pirate Crew.

Because Zhang Han had analyzed the sailing trajectory of the Morning Star Pirate Crew's warships.

Although the Star Pirates' warships did not record the location of their base.

However, according to the warships' logs, the Morning Star Pirates' warships operated with considerable secrecy.

In addition, the cargo that the Morning Star Pirates were transporting this time was so sensitive.

It was impossible for outsiders to know the warship's route.

Therefore, Zhang Han guessed that the person who provided him with the intelligence was a pirate, and a competitor of the Morning Star Pirate Crew.

We must seize this opportunity to wipe out the Morning Star Pirates.

After this incident, the Morning Star Pirate Crew was wanted by both the Empire and the Pirate Alliance.

Now that the other party wants standard energy stones, it confirms my suspicion.

"No problem at all!"

"How many energy stones are needed?" Zhang Han replied immediately.

Zhang Han was already making plans in his mind. He would give the energy stone to the other party now and slowly find out their background.

Once you become the captain of the main fleet and have control of it, you can then take action against the enemy.

This timeframe could be two or three years!
The construction of the main warships, as well as the preparation of supporting warships, takes a considerable amount of time.

Furthermore, it will take some time to develop true combat capability.

It's even possible to gain access to more information through the other party.

"Of course the more the better!"

"The more you give, the more valuable the information I can provide you later!" Yang Bo replied upon seeing the question raised by the other party.

"No problem at all."

"Where shall we make the transaction?" Zhang Han readily agreed.

"Get ready, and wait for my notification!"

"We'll talk when we meet!" Yang Bo knew these guys had ulterior motives when he saw how readily they answered, so he decided to give them a chance.

After seeing the reply, Zhang Han chuckled to himself.

As long as you can meet the other party and find out their background in the following time, you can get back double what you took out.

“Okay!!” Zhang Han replied immediately.

After breaking off contact with Zhang Han, Yang Bo thought to himself, "I hope this Zhang Han won't disappoint me!"
